Currently Saskatoon Minor Football Field is seeing the installation of 5,000 seats and 9 boxes from the Saskatchewan Roughriders’ Grey Cup Legacy Project. Fundraising is underway for a new clock, bleachers, training mats, and track upgrades at Clarence Downey Speed Skating Oval and the installation of a new national standards backstop for Gordie Howe Softball Park.

But there is even more!

At the Saskatoon Valkyries football game on Saturday night the Friends of the Bowl Foundation officially introduced its roster of partners:
